Kidney Stones HURT !!!

Hi Ladies,


Just a quicky to let you know that I have to have surgery because of kidney stones. Last week I was sick and my tummy was real sore, I figured it was my IBS actting up again so of course I ignored it. Well, Saturday I ended up in the ER doubled up and as white as Casper. The Surgeon was ready to take out my apendix ( sp ) but wanted a CAT scan first. Good thing they did, I have 3 stones. 1 is stuck in the tube and 2 are in my right kidney. I passed pieces of the one that is trying to pass, but the others are too big. The pain was so bad I was hooked up to a Moriphine (sp) pump.


I'll check back in and let y'all know when I go in, it will be in the next couple of weeks. I just want to know why is it that when my life is going good something ALWAYS happens to kick me back :(


Hugs,


Robin

I talked with a nurse at the hospital and she said that she would rather go thru another 96 hour labor than have another stone pass. Slowly they are passing, and BOY do they hurt. Little Wobin was not ment to push out sharp shards !


Big hugs,

Robin
